Is there a way to easily undo marking a task as completed? At least a 10 second undo would be useful. Thanks

Is there still no option to undo or undelete a task other than the window at the bottom left corner when that pops up?? Being able to locate those items that may have accidentally been deleted would be extremely helpful.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE FIX THIS!!! There needs to be a ctrl-z feature. I just accidentally sorted by a column which screwed up the priorities order I set for the TO DOs and, guess what, there is no way back without reprioritizing everything. These are the things that make me desperately miss Jira (of all things).

Welcome, @Dane_Rosselli. You replied to me but I donā€™t work for Asana; Iā€™m just a consultant. Donā€™t forget to click the title to scroll to the top and vote by clicking the purple Vote button; thatā€™s the quickest and most effective way to express your support for a request.

Not in my Asana. Are there different versions, or have they removed this?

If I had a choice, I would quit using Asana right now just for this one reason. It is so easy to lose a lot of work. The risk is just too high.
Unfortunately one of my clients currently prefers Asana.

PM Lead here :waving_hand:
This feature is something Iā€™d love to see happen - but given how broad and complex Asana functionality can be, Iā€™d love to dig into this deeper with anyone willing to talk to me: Calendly

Status updated to Considered. Being transparent, the power of Asanaā€™s automations (with or without AI studio) complicates the feasibility and reliability of a global undo functionality.

As a competitive example: Smartsheet does in fact offer undo functionality. But their undo only reverses the most immediate change to a field (or similar), but it does not reverse or stop any automations triggered by that original change. We believe this is not an intuitive or ideal user experience - especially for more passive users unaware of how their intentional or accidental project changes impact automations.

We have however prioritized investigating the feasibility and user experience impacts in our upcoming half. Note: Though we are investigating how this may work in Asana, it does not mean we are committing to shipping undo functionality at this time.

I wish there was a back button or undo button for accidentally deleting something in notes! Does anyone have a work around?

Hi @Mary_Beth_Meadows,

FYI Iā€™ve merged your post with an existing thread for this request.
